The induced earthquake sequence related to the St. Gallen deep geothermal project (Switzerland): Fault reactivation and fluid interactions imaged by microseismicity
In July 2013, a sequence of more than 340 earthquakes was induced by reservoir
stimulations and well‐control procedures following a gas kick at a deep geothermal drilling …

Improving Absolute Hypocenter Accuracy With 3D Pg and Sg Body‐Wave Inversion Procedures and Application to Earthquakes in the Central Alps Region
Accuracy of hypocenter location, in particular focal depth, is a precondition for high‐
resolution seismotectonic analysis of natural and induced seismicity. For instance, linking …
